this is epic "fix" indeed ... had 15fps in some places before (when looking to the middle of the map or that big ARK building) ..after setting View Distance to Epic its 35Fps ... game now mostly runs between 45-70 fps with everything on Epic, except motion blur disabled and shadows on medium.

Great times :D

edit: just in case, my hardware if anyone interested
AMD FX-8320 @ 4,2ghz, ASUS GTX 970 STRIX, 16GB DDR3 1866mhz, Arch Linux x86_64, MATE Destkop, nvidia drivers 352.21, Game is on SSD (had missing texture issues on HDD because it couldnt keep up and loading times went from 2 min to 20 sec + loading new landscapes takes just small fps drop, it froze for few seconds when ran from HDD)

Garry has already given an update on the situation:

QuoteLinux

Linux is broke. We know and we’re sorry. This isn’t a problem we can fix easily. It’s a bug in the latest version of Unity. They’ve apparently fixed it in their internal builds – but haven’t released the fix just yet, so we’re waiting patiently along with you guys.

We can’t just roll-back to a working version of the game because it would mean rolling back a number of other important fixes if we do. This might seem cruel, twisted, disrespectful to the Linux users. Would we roll back if this was affecting Windows users? Yes. Because they are the huge majority. We sometimes have to prioritise the majority. It sucks, and we know it sucks.

It’s important to say that the game is still in early access, still in alpha, still in active development. We update every week. It’s not going to stay like this.

Quoting: BeamboomIt's not released at all yet. It's Early Access. That means people pay to be beta testers.
An idiotic concept I wish no one supported.

still a lot better than kickstarter.. at least you get the game in some form.
i like to be involved in development however..i play a bit... then stop playing for some months..when i go back the games have progressed a lot (ofc depends how active devs) and everything is like new again. + it supports innovation, smaller teams can make their dreams come true via early access... big publishers are afraid to try anything new so they just release same shit with new name every year.

my 2 cents on that

framerate is not that good but its same for windows users when i read the forums..so nothing to worry about... still early access

missing ground issues were fixed when i moved the game from HDD to SSD... it seems to load disks quite heavily


quick gameplay video as well:

Quoting: KimyrielleIs this a pure first person game? Please tell me it's not. This is the first survival game that interests me (I am SO not into zombies!), but 1st person games make me seasick. :S

there is thirdperson view also and it defaults to thirdperson view when mounting dinos
i think theres also FoV slider so you shouldnt get seasick if you put it more than 90 degrees

you just scroll out with the mouse wheel.. however most of the servers prevent thirdperson view for obvious reasons..some allow and singleplayer you can play also

Quoting: peteI have a little question:

So far I have not had the time to play Amnesia The Dark Decent. But I really like for example Dead Space (and found it very scary).

Is there anyone here who has played both and give maybe an idea of what felt scaryer (if compairing is even possible).

Just curiosity :)

if dead space 1 and 3 count ... Amnesia is scarier imo, it just has the sound effects that make it super scary and you really cant do nothing against monsters, just hide.
dead space 1 was also kind a scary but 3 was not at all.

Quoting: FutureSutureLinux gamers who have an AMD graphics card and are running the open source driver can literally run this game better than me.

While it obviously sucks for those who are suffering from this, I must admit to getting a certain amount of schadenfreude from this. Maybe even a little vindication. ;)

i put a mark on my calendar.. thats the first time i hear that game works with AMD and not with Nvidia!
this day is special i guess.. lets drink!

insta buy ...seems a lot more interesting than Amnesia or Penumbra series.. dont get me wrong, i liked those as well, but sci-fi setting seems more interesting.
